cyberbullying

Description

Examining the effects of cyberbullying, this short PSHE video for primary and secondary pupils uses the case of a 14-year-old girl to show how serious the consequences can be.

This lesson and assembly starter explains how cyberbullying is a new form of bullying that takes place over the internet, by email and in text messages, taking bullying from the school grounds into the victim?s home.

Here, a 14-year-old girl describes how a few nasty text messages rapidly became something much worse for her, causing her to suffer severe depression and attempt suicide.

This short video can be used to begin discussions with pupils on cyberbullying, such as what they would do if they or their friends were being cyberbullied.
